It's already February, where has the time gone? One thing is for sure though, The Bonus View hasn't slowed down in its coverage of everything HD. Whether it be in the theaters or on the small screen we've got you covered.
This week we continued to roll out more Sundance Film Festival coverage. We also covered a few mid-season series premieres so people know what's happening on TV. Check out everything this week had to offer.
Blu-ray News
You'll want to take a look at our Blu-ray Highlights post this week. Josh outlines a few stellar picks, such as 'Lady and the Tramp'. It isn't all good though, that one vampire vs. werewolf movie came out too and I'm not referring to the franchise with a leather-clad Kate Beckinsale.
With his Full Metal Jackets post of the week, Tom Landy discusses the Future Shop steelbook for 'The Immortals' for all you collectors out there.
Theatrical News
Wonder what you should see this weekend at the movies? Well, Luke Hickman has seen just about everything being released and he's got a rundown of the movies you should see and the ones you should skip completely. See what Luke thinks about the releases of 'Journey 2,' 'The Vow,' and 'Safe House.'
We still have some Sundance coverage that we're putting up so this week you'll be able to find reviews on Josh Radnor's 'Liberal Arts,' the fantastic little time travel movie 'Safety Not Guaranteed,' the funny gross-out R rated girl comedy 'For a Good Time, Call...' and a story about a kid, a couple goats and David Duchovny with a wily beard in 'Goats.'
E, covered the trailer front, looking at a couple trailers for two new horror movies that are coming out. Check out what he thought about the previews for 'ATM' and 'Silent House' in this week's Trailer Park.
Finally, as awards time fast approaches Luke takes a look at the SAG Awards winners and wonders if they'll predict the upcoming Oscar winners.
TV Recaps
This week saw the beginning of a couple new series, which we made sure we covered for you. Aaron took on the series premiere of 'The River' which he surprisingly enjoyed, while Josh checked out NBC's new musical drama 'Smash.'
Other shows that we covered with recaps this week include: 'Grimm,' 'Fringe,' and 'Alcatraz.' Don't forget, 'The Walking Dead' starts back up this Sunday and we'll pick up right where we left off with that show. So remember to join in on the discussion. When this 'Walking Dead' season started we had quite a few lively discussions about the episodes, so it should be fun.
Special Features
This week's Weekend Roundtable we discussed our favorite acting performances of 2011. What were yours? Make sure to let us know. Leading up to the Oscars our Mid-week Poll asked who you think will win in the major acting categories and also who you think should win. Make sure to vote if you haven't already.
Thanks for joining us here at The Bonus View for another week of movies, TV and fun. Please continue to comment. We love hearing what you have to say.
